Our Kickstart diet calls for Salsa Fresca to be eaten with Simple Bean Tacos. I made my own version of this fresh salsa, incorporating peaches and pineapple since I love sweet salsa. Here's how it goes:
Ingredients
3/4 of a 28 oz. can diced tomatoes (these were leftover from my Vegetarian Swiss Steak dish)
1/2 vidalia onion, finely chopped
1/2 bell pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1/2 red pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 cup chopped pineapple (I used canned chunks and cut them into smaller pieces)
1 cup chopped peaches (I used canned peaches and cut them into smaller pieces)
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro (I probably used more because I LOVE cilantro - it makes the salsa)
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 teaspoon ground cumin
juice from 1 lime
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Just throw it all together and refrigerate. It's that easy, and boy is it full of flavor! I love salsa because you can use it on anything, and you can freeze it for later. And you know I'll be doing that since I made a huge batch! You cannot get more colorful than this creation. It is all about the color, my friends!
